Last year we began expanding our presence in the European capital. While our roots are in Germany, our mission has no borders. Our presence in Brussels signifies our commitment to driving cleantech innovation harder on local, regional, and global scales. We look forward to continuing our work on the hard-to-abate sectors, such as aviation, cement, long duration energy storage, and thermal energy storage, in new spaces. Join us in this endeavor!
